impudence he hastily left the General's

He was afterward again elected a mem
ber cf the House; up to which time he
had been one cf the bitterest enemies of
the Ciiv cf Omaha. On reaching Omaha
lo take his ?eat ns a member cf the Leg
islatire session cf 1SJ7-53, he suddenly,
for $omt cavie or ciher, flopped ever on
the- siip r,f Omaha, in our local contro
' rcrsies. At that session he distinguished '
himself by introducing a Bill to prchilit
carrying deadly vrenpcr.r; aitisticg to de
feat the re-c!jticr.s cr.Icrsing Senator
D;c-!;;s and Ms principles, and driving
Hen. S. A. Chambers cf this county out
of ths House, after the adjournment to
Florence.
As an evidence of his superior talent,
we give an extract from the prospectus

Tnat Railroad Bill.
As so much is'beicg said about Mr.
Daily defeating the Bill granting lands
for railroad purposes, we here publish the
objectionable features cfthat Bill. As to
Mr. D. defeating it however, that is sim
ply nonsensical. He nor no ether single
individual defeated it. Mr. Daily like
many others was not in favor of such a
Bill. It was defeated by a vote cf 131
to 50; and would hate been defeated if
no such man as Daily had ever existed; or
if there had hare teen fifty Dailys, Del
egates in Congress and all in favor cf the
Bill.
The Bill granted alternate sections of
land seven miles on each side of four roads
and to favor the speculating scheme, the
alternate sections were not to be sold to
settlers for less than S2,u0 per acre; dou
tie the price of the government or public
lands, and not even at that, price, until af
ter the speculators had had the advantage
over the settlers by having it offered at
public sale. Here is the section in regard
to that matter; read it for yourselves:
Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, that tbe Sections
and partaof ectionof land, w hich by aucb grant, thall
remain in the l uited States, wiihin xeven miiea on
each Mdecf the road, shall not be oM for lvs than
d.uble tbe minimum price of the public land when sold
nor shall any of id lands become nubject to private
entry until the eanie t.ball have been first cCered at
public aale at the Increased price.
Next, the Bill permitted that FIVE
HUNDRED AND SIXTY SECTIONS;
OR THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-EIGHT
THOUSAND FOUR
HUNDRED ACRES of land might be
sold before even a spade was stuck into
the ground; and after that, upon the com
pletion of merely twenty miles on any
one of the roads! a like quantity of land
was to be sold. Section 4 cf the Bill reads
as fellows:
Sec. i. And be it further enacted, that the lands here
by granted to the Territory or future State SHALL BE
disposed of by the Territory r future State lu tbe man
ner following tbat in to say tbat a quantity of land not
KXCKEDINtf ONK tiCVDRKI) AND FORTT SEC
TIONS i'OR KACU OV SAID ROADS, and included in
a continuous leutttb of twenty mi lea of each of said
roads, MXT BK SOLD; J.nd when tbe Governor of said
Territory or future State shall certify to the Secretary
of the Interior that any twenty continuou milet of
ai4 road it computed, then ANOTHER QUANTITY
OF LAN D hereby granted not to exceed ON K HI N DRED
AN'DKORTr SECTIONS for each cf Jid roads having
twenty continuous mile completed and included within
a continuous length of twenty miles of each of said
roada, MAT BE SOLD, and bo from tiro to time until
said road.i are completed ; and If any cf said roada are
not completed w ithin ten years, no further sale shall be
made, and the land unsold ibail revert to tbe United
States.
We ask every honest candid man in
Nebraska, if Samuel G. Daily or any oth
er man occupying the position of delegate
had remained silent and let such a Bill
pass for the purpose of fleecing the terri
tory, if you would not have been justified
in tarring and feathering him upon his
return to Nebraska. Instead of acting
the part of an enemy to our interests, he
has been our friend, and acted well his
part in this matter, and is entitled to the
heartfelt thanks of the people. If for no
other reason, he should be re-elected.
a
PonDleton denies It.
Hon. A. J. Poppleton who made a
speech here on Saturday night last, took
occasion to deny "in toto that he or any
other man ever rudely treated Hon. S. A.
Chambers." In regard to that matter
we propose, to republish an affidavit of
Mr Chambers, made shortly after the
Legislature adjourned. We are willing
it should go before the people of this
county against any mans mere denial.
Waa la the House on the morning of the 8th when a
motion was made to adjourn to Florence , did not vote
on tbe motion; after tbe motion carried, the majority
retlreJ, and the minority immediately reorganized by
electing Mt. l'ornleton of Douglas County, Speaker,
and a'.so electing other subordinate cfUcers. I still re
mained at my seat, directum some documents to
my friend, after completing which, I called the
page to take charge! of them and take tbem to the
Pot Offlce; Mr. Morton of Otoe, r-poke to me from his
scat saying. ' Ton have not the franking privilege
you have no rights fcere." I replied that I had rights
and would aert them. The Speaker then ordered the
Scargtnt-ot-Armt, to "Clear the House ef all Re
fractory membcrt, take him out." Some one ether of
tbe minority added "and see that be does not take more
than belong to him." Thesergent-at-ami approacb
me wtiou i replied I can go out without being put out;
he. took hold of me and walked wi'.h me to the door.
1'rom tbe time Mr. Morton sp.'keto me nntil 1 left the
Hall there was continued cheering and stamping by the
minority and lobby. An 1 went out 1 looked back and
discovered Mr. Porpltton, the ixtvhj elected Speaker,
nenr ruy lack with- hit gavel draw. He afterward
told mo that be had followed me to the door, expecting
1 would prove refractory; but that be was ashamed of
bis conduct. S. A. CHAMBERS.
Mr. S. A. Chambers, having carefully read tbe above,
subscribed and swore to the same before me this 25th
day cf January, IbSi.. K. W. Frame,
Notary Public.
CrnsalnjrOnt.
It has ever been the policy of those
assuming the leadership cf the Dem-
as now organized m
to "crush out' each
and every man failing to subscribe
to their particular policy their plans.
This system existed with these menbe-
lore party nne3 were Grawn, ana since
when, has been adopted as the principal
article ia the constitution governing the
political association under tneir manajre-
ment. Men's private characters are at
tacked ; in social life they are treated
unbecomingly ; their business affairs are
meddled with ; in fact, every conceiva
tie means are resorted to in order to
"put down." and "crush" and "drive out"
men in this Territory, who, governed by
higher motives than personal aggrandise
ment, or the "Almighty dollar,' refuse
to sustain or wink at iniquities of suf
ficient magnitude to "make argels weep,
and devils blush." It is lamentable to
be forced to believe that this doctrine
taught Vy leaders, and. undoubtedly un
consciously ia many instances, practiced
by others because "c.otorrary," is dis
posed to ramify ar.d extend even into
county and town clfairs. This is all ev
idence of a bad state of society, and the
sooner it is remedied the better for the
country and all concerned. The sooner
the people frown down such men and
ocratic party
this Territory
such practices, and in their might rise
up and rebuke, ia failing to sustain such
lcadei?, the sooner Mar interests will be
enred fur.
Unfair Electioneering ;
We had hoped, that the present cam
paign, at least in our county affairs,
would be conducted cn a high-toned, lib-,
eral scale; that whatever might, be the
little di;frence3 existing among us, when
the election is over, we might all feel
that nothing had been said or dene to mar
our friendly or neighborly relations. We
had determined so far as the Jdvcrtixtr
was concerned, not to tak? part one way
or the other in our county elections. It
being the enly paper published at the
County seat, the principal object of which
is to labor for the good of the whole coun
ty ; supported and sustained by liberal
minded men of all parties, we felt it "our
duty to give all the benefit of its columns,
This was and is our determination. Per
sonally we have our preferences among
the candidates, for reasons satisfactory
toourself; and like a free American citi
zen, we intend to exercise the right of
suffrage, claiming for ourself, what we
claim for others, that no other man or
men shall call in question our sacred
i
right. We repeat : farther that this, the
Jldvtrtiscr and its Editor .will not meddle
with the political affairs of this County.
But, when we know that our neighbors,
and personal friends wt rare net ichick
political parly they belong to are being
wronged ; or misrepresented in a man
ner calculated to injure their pri
vate character, we consider it our duty,
both as a journalist, and as a private cit
izen, to vindicate the assailed. We do
not deem it necessary to parade in print
certain rumors which have been in circu
lation in this place the past week, involv
ing the honesty and integrity of Mr.
TirroiT, one of the Candidates for Coun
cil. His friends have traced them up,
and found them to have originated either
jocularly, or through misunderstanding;
and there, they should have stopped.
We know both Mr. Tiptox and Blas
ters to be honorable men; the most
friendly personal relations existing be
tween them ; either would scorn the idea
of taking any undue advantage of the
other. We know, ffom a personal in
terview with each, and a . knowledge of
their character, that so far as they are
concerned, nothing, shall occur unbecom
ing gentlemen aspiring to the position
for which they are candidates. We have
it from gentlemen who have heard Mr.
Tipton's speeches, that he invariably
speaks in the highest terms of Mr. Plas
ters as a man; only disagreeing with his
political principles, and we have every
reason to believe Mr. Plasters thus treats
Mr. Tipton. Certainly their friends
should not do otherwise. The men are
both competent to defend themselves po
litically. In that we leave them to them
selves. We will however defend the
private character, and social and business
relations of both, or any other of the.can-
didates when wrongfully and injuriously
assailed.
We are aware that rumors grow as
they travel, and soon assume a shape of
character and credibility, and are finally
given currency to by men who believe
them to be truths; and we have only here
to urge the resort to, and practice of the
old style of electionerring; Let true
merit and principles govern us in our ac
tions. Dally on the Homestead Bill.
It is charged that Mr. Daily opposed
the passage of a Homestead Bill in the
Nebraska Legislature. He did no such
thing; and if any man will take the House
Journal of 1S5S and read carefully froin
page 130 to page 13S, the consideration
by that body of the Homestead measure,
they cannot fail to be satisfied that we as
sert correctly. The fact is there were no
less than nine Homestead Bills before the
Legislature at that session, and while nine
tenths of the members, irrespective of pol
itics, were in favor of a Homestead, there
was a very great diversity of opinion as
to what should be the details cf a Bill,
Many were in favor of a specified number
of acres of land without regard to valua
tion. Others were in favor of a limited
valuation; and among this class the ques
tion of value extended from S1C0 to S10,
000, as will be seen by reference to House
Journal page 131. Mr.. Daily believed
that an unlimited Homestead was making
aa unjust discrimination in favor of the
wealthy citizens over the poorer class;
wis in favor of the passage of a Bill pro
viding for a limited valuation. We have
not room to copy 8 or 10 pages of the
Journals, but refer our readers to them,
where they can see for themselves. Ev
ery man who is acquainted with Mr. Dai
ly, knows him to be in favor cf all mea
sures calculated to benefit the laboring
classes
, , , , ,
Poppleton's Speeca.
A. J. PoppLrTox, of Omaha, address
ed the people of this place on Saturday
night last. When we say, that so far as
the discussion cf matters in ivhich we in
Nebraska are concerned, his speech was
after the style of Morton, we have said
all ;
Every administration speaker we have
ever heard during the campaign, hc!s told
the same story. They tell us tve Lave
nothing to do with national politics; dodge
the Land Sale operation; the right of the
people to regulate their domestic affairs;
in fact everything in which the people cf
the Territory are really interested. Then
comes a general onslaught of false charg
es against Mr. Daily and his friends, and
jgrosg misrepresentations and pervcrtions
premeditatedJy concocted and uttered for
the sole and only purpose of keeping Mr.
Daily and his supporters on the defence.
Mr. PoppletDn knows as well ashe knows
he exists, that Mr. Daily is not opposed
to a Homestead; that he is not opposed to
appropriations fcr this territory in either
money or lands. li j knows that Mr.
Daily's objections were io the bills, not to
the appropriations. He knows full well,
too, that the bills defeated, were unjust in
their provisions and not sufficiently guard
ed to secure the objects said to be in view.
He said the Homestead was a Demo
cratic measure; the only Bill ever parsed
was secured before the existence of the
Republican party! And in the next breath
said it was passed notwithstanding theop
position of the Republicans.
In regard to the Buffalo, and other
election frauds; he first denied that any
were committed; secondly that the. can
vassing board knew. nothing of them, and
thirdly as an off-set that the Republicans
in New York State committed frauds! It
is equal to the defence in the cracked
kettle controversy "first, the kettle was
cracked when I got it; second, it was sound
when I returned it, and third, "I never
borrowed it!" ? ' . '
He spoke, ridiculing the passage cf a
Bill imprisoning Justices of the Peace for
offences committed by others; but forgot
to say a word about a Bill being passed
when he was a member cf the Legisla
ture fining the owners of "gentlemen hor
ses" when found running at large. He
ought not to forget that his friend Morton
h running some risk by "running loose."
"Pop" had it "all his own way" here;
but we have heard of "nary" convert.
Be on Your Guard and at Yonr
Posts.
The opponents of Mr. Daily are leav
ing no stone unturned ; they are playing
a desperate game : are circulating all
manner of false reports; are scouring
the Territory from one end to the cther
determined if possible, to overthrow Mr.
Daily and endorse the Administration
of Buchanan. Let every friend of Daily,
and opponent of this proscriptive, oppres
sive, and tyrannical Administration, feel
and act as though the result depended up
on his individual effort and vote, and act
accordingly, and'theday is ours." Be
up and doing; see your neighbor; talk
with him; reason-' with him; show the
ruinous condition of the Territory, brought
about by forcing upon us the sale of the
public lands. No lover of Nebraska,
who will reflect one moment will consent
to endorse the plans and policy of Bu
chanan Democracy. "Eternal vigilance is
the price of liberty."
Consistency.
The Board of Canvassers who gave Genl
Estabrook the certificate, justified them
selves in so doing, by taking the position
that they had a plain and positive duty to
perform, viz: count the votes returned to
them and give the certificate to th per
son having the highest number of votes;
that they possessed no power to decide up
on the1 legality or illegality of the votes.
Democratic stump speakers all over the
Territory during this campaign make this
poiDt in defence. Now the friends of
Morton have on foot a project to throw
out the voles of one or more back coun
ties, if necessary, because of an alleded
informality in issuing the proclamation for
election. We do not believe the Board
will attempt to do any such thing.' . But
the fact of plans being concocted to at
tempt the carrying out of such a pro
gramme, is sufficient to show what some
men would do if they could; shows how
beautifully consistent they are.
Hasn't Resigned.
We believe Mr. Daily has not yet resigned the seat
which a partizan House gave him, to allow the peo
ple to pass their judgment upon the matter.
Fntiik Blair (Iicpubliean) of St. Louis, wss also
admitted bv a partizan House, but he promptly re
signed to allow the people to pass their judgment
upon the matter. Frank Blair is aa honorable Re
publican. . . . . ..
. Daily has not resigned. Ia be an honorable Re
publican? Selratlcitn. '
. That'sfunny! Why don't Morion re
sign the office of Secretary cf this Terri
tory, an office he holds under old Buchan
an? You say he is sure of being elected
and he can't hold both offices, you know.
May-he, however, as the "old'f unc" has
graciously condescended to let "Mort"
vote for who he pleases for President, he
may allow him to "shed his man'le" in
favor of some one of his "frisnds;"
"Strick" or "Pop", for instance.
a .
' . Morton at Ralo.
It has been said hereabouts with con
siderable rejoicing, that at Rulo Morton
carried everything before him. The follow
ing letter from that place will give some
thing of an idea how he did it. We will
say that the letter is from one in no way
connected with this coutest; is cot a resi
dent of the Territory, but happened to be
in Rulo on the day Daily and Morton spoke
there.
Rclo, September, 20, 1833
Mr. Editor:
Yesterday was our political day, We were visit
ed by the lion. S. G. Daily and J. bterlin:; Mor
ton You and your readers are probably be tter pos
ted in regard to the course generally pursued by
each of the gentlemen named, and also cf their
merits.
I do not, therefore, wish to speak of those thin;rs.
but permit me to say a yery few words ia regard to
Morton' coarse, and those who support him here:
' You will doubtlea ace ia some of the Democrat:c( I)
sheet that Morton tock everything ly storm. That
he roused enthusiasm which swept everything before
it; that he was crrried off triumphantly on the
shoulders cf the crowd. 4c. Thii ia all to. But
cioarethe crowd? Who are they that worhip

Political Papers No. 4.
Fell W-Democrats of ihe Dovglas King :
Having reviewed the on!ypriitctpi(f)
in the Democratic sectional Territorial
Platform, and proven that the only con
struction that can be placed on them per
mits intervention by Congrets to protect,
or establish slavery in ihe TerriiO'
rtfts," by their "pledge" of silence un
til we "form a State Constitution ;"
and as the best standard by which to test
this Platform is the past position of those
now supporting it: let us see how far
their past preaching and practice has gone
to sustain my charge that they have been
and are now with the Squatter-hating
Administration of James Buchanan, who
has made a stump speech endorsing
Breckinridge and Lane.
First, in order, comes Morton.who holds
the standard of the party and Bu
chanan's commission as Secretary. Mr.
Rankin as good a Douglas Democrat as
ever crossed the Missouri in his speech
at Nebraska City recently, said that :
When, in 1857, he used bla influence ia tbe Legial.
tnro to obtain the passage of resolution endowing Air.
Douclas aa the champion of Popular Soveieicnty, MOR
TON', theu a member cf the House, did all in kit power
to destroy there eject, by inserting tbe name- of Casa
and others, and attempted to catt odium ad ridicule
upon the movement Through hia paper, the News, he
puured upou him tbe moot vile and blackguard abuse, on
accoukt of bis devotion to the cauce of Mr. Douglas.
And not only in the culumna of that sheet, but in every
other manner he (MORTON) abused hiui and all oiaera
who opposed the vile aud corrupt Administration of Bu
chanan, and stood up for Douglas and Popular Suveriga
ty." If Morton sustained the Administration
gratis in '57, is he likely to change in '60
tcen it pays 82,000 a year 1
Higher in rank, but next in importance
at present, comes Go7.' Black ; his notions
of Popular Sovereignty may be seen by
the following extract from his Veto Mes
sage on the bill to prohibit Slavery in this
Territory :
In this attempt to prohibit slavery by aa of tlie
.Territorial Attembly, I am constrained to aay you hate
overlooked the true intent und meaning of the Organic
Law.
WThile the bill was pending the Hon.
D. D. Belden a Democrat now laboring
for Morton in a speech, in opposition
to the bill, said :
The right of the Territories to legislate on the sub
ject of slavery during their Territorial exittenee, is not
recognized in the Cincinnati platrorm
And shall 1 step on to tbla doubtful ground, and as
sume to overrule the Supreme Court 9
Compare these two last quotation with the
following- from the President's Message,
which, in calling the attention of its read
ers to, the JVebraskian styles an table
document":, .
The right has beeu established of every citizen to take
his property of any kind, Including slaves, Into th )co mi
nion Territories. . Tbe supreme judicial
tribunal of tbe country, which as a co-ordinate branch of
the Government, haasanctiouedaud afflrmed these prin
ciples of constitutional law.
As the Omaha Jfebraskian is at present
the expounder of Morton and Dougla(?)
doctrine, and as it so loud in recognizing
"no division," let us see what it once
recognized as pure Democracy. . Its leader
of Sept. 22d, '58, on 'the meeting of the
Legislature," and its organization, giving
an account of the examination of the can
didates for Speaker of the House, con
tains an "episode," from which the fol
lowing are extracts :
The Democratic candidate, Mr. Fleroin:, was first
placed in the 'witness bux' to testify to bis political
faith. To each interrogatory Mr.
Fleming replied with a coolness, clearness and delibe
ration which did equal credit to hi Intelligence asatnin
and the purity oj hit Democracy. He
sustained tbe principles of tbe K.ansas-Xebrakaact, re
garded tbe Lecompton Constitution a dead issue ap
proved of the general policyboth foreign and do
men tic of tke Administration, and ably and warmly
defended the Dred Scott decition.
After endorsing such as "pure" Demo
cracy, there b little danger of its mis
leading Douglas Democrats to the support
of its Buchanan official candidate.
Next, comes the News part of which
it is said Morton owns, whether it is the
editor or' the material I know not carry
ing at its masth:ad Douglas and Morten !
The former an opponent to, the latter a
component part of, the Administration!
Yet, while it is engaged in thislaudablef ?)
task of recognizing "no division" at the
expense of being thought very inconsis
tant : let us withdraw the curtains and
examine the past position of this harmo
nious sheet.
March 27, on receiving the appointment
of Major from Buchanan, he says :
If the President concludes to accept the service of
Gea. Down's Brigade and at present we have no doubt
he will and if we seriously, uncomprom'ingly and un
hesitatingly determine that we the Editor can be of
more tervice to our beloved country and to the Demo
cratic Administration of James Buchanan by flirbtinf
than by writing Democratic editorials in the Sebrat
k Sewt. we ahall with the eagerness sad agnity of a
young Uurcule grasp the old iue, fcx.
How 'eager' to serve 'the Democratic
Administration of Jame3 Buchanan.' He
manifests his zeal for Buchanan in his
leader of April 17th, '58, as follows :
That be (Buchanan) ia imbued with a lofty patriotism
such aa Washington felt and Jackson exemplified it evi
dent. We can repose confidence, implicit and unreserved,
in a Statesman aucb as is our present Chief Magistrate,
for we know tbat hia every act will be dictated by the
purest patriot ism sua his best judjment, enlightened
by a lifelong experience. .
Mr. Buchanan's Administration four years he ace
will be regarded the mot vigorous and prosperous tor
tbecountry and the Democratic party of any since the
days of Jackson. In eficiency it already calls to mind
the days of that invincible patriot,
We expect bo ditmauLion of Mr. Buchanan' honors
but still brighter oacs to be added thereto.
Such a libel on the 'Father of his coun
try' was never before perpetrated ! Such
'implicit confidence' in Bachanan's 'patri
otism' and 'best judgment' was never be
fore heard of! Such a 'vigorous and pros
perous' Administration for the 'Democrat
ic party; and such an expectation ! Ncne
but the most zealous frie n d cf this Squatter-hating
Administration would dare thus
to insult the memory of Washington and
Jackson, and place before an intelligent
world surb stuff. And all for Morton's
Commission as Secretary, and his own
Commission as Major ! ! !
Now, let us see how it has heretofore
spoken cf Douglas, who it new pretends
to support for the Presidency. Ia its issue
cf March 13, '53. appears tha following in
its editorial, which shows its position and
style :
The fact is. this Kansas w &By ! r:'ii cfirf. if
respontivle and unprincipled sunnier i tl cx,, n-l '.Lie

- - lotl.rti'A,! ainl h,ri sic it Cl t'.iii ?PiLit4
jargon and contempiille farjarsitde.
Compare this with the following, wnicn
appeared in. its issue of Auj. H
That wis an unfortunate step, we fear, for ! dis
tinguished Senator, (Ooola) "when 10 MAKi- A
SVRAXCE DOVBLY SLUE" of hit rt-eiection, be
boldly assailed ihepolicj of hi party and plsted himseir
In open and defiant recusancy to the Admmulration.
Douglas assailed the 'policy1 of Buch
anan to secure 'his re-election, did he?
And, therefore, is one of that class so
beautifully spoken of above. The same ar
icles also contains the following:
Mr. Douglas msy succeed; hut it will be at a peril. It
will be throuna no particular dtvotion io ppnctple r
from a tmitlen love for that which ts A mi OTIC
and RIGHT. It will be a trial and triumph of one
manpower. . .
If be succeeds our reverence f.r the man s eeuius and
brilliant, thoug not PROFOUND Uetfimanship,
will only be Increased We now and always have re
garded Mm tbe Napoleon of Senators; but wis 7
Uon reliable, AND CAN DOUGLAS BE TRUSTED I
Aain, speaking of the JCemaha Val
ley Journal, Dec. 11th, 53, it says:
We like the Democratic tone of the Journal. It
speak out boldly in favor of Mr. Buchanan and the
Adminittration..
The above is the languge of men and
papers except the first quotation who
now sustain Morton and are the loudest
shriekers for "no division."
Now, Fellow-Douzlasites, are you wil
ling to be led like a sheep to slaughter by
men who have placed such construction on
Popular Sovereignty, endorsed the Ad
ministration policy both foreign and do
mestic endorsed the Dred Scott decision,
and finally villified Douglas as not being
devoted to "principle," or what is "patri
ot ic and right" 1 Are you.vvilliug to fol
low suit to such men, and ' sink or swim"
with the Squatter-hating Administration
party in this Territory ?

North cf Platte.
Our advices are that Hon. W. II. Tay
lor who is now North of the Platte, stump
ing for Daily, is making a fine impres
sion. A friend in a private letter to us,
says of Taylor at Omaha, "W. II. Tay
lor spoke here last night to a large audi
ence of all parties, who listened with
marked attention I think he made the
most argumentative and convincing speeeh
of the campaign."
From still farther notes we aro inform
ed Mr. Daily's prospects are most flatter
ing. "Fixing Thlnss Up."
They say "Mort" is now up the Platte
along the road to Pike's Peak, "fxin
things up" in that region. Don't know
exactly what is meant by "fixin things up;"
but reckon it means -'Buffalo and L' Eau
Qui Court."
Who are the Abolitionists?
"Keep it before the people," that M.
W. Reynolds, Editor of Morton's paper
the Nebraska City -Yews, when a mem
ber of the lower branch cf the Nebraska
Legislature ; and while the bill to pro
hibit slavery was under consideration he
offered the following, as an amendment
thereto. See page 101 House Journal,
1859:
"Mr. Reynolds of Otoe, morci to amend aa follows:
"Sec. ?. Any black or mulatto person, or Indian
r X . i . . . ... '
or any person oi .veRro or inuiaa wooa, shall be per
mitted to give evidence in favor or against aay white
person whatsover: and hi or her testimony shall be
entitled to the same weight and credit in the court
of this Territory a that of any white person."
Ominous.
On the day Daily and Morton spoke in
this place, two stringers were stretched
across the street, one bearing the inscrip
tion "For Congress Samuel G. Daily,"
and the other "Morton and Democracy."
They have been allowed to remain. The
other night we had quite a storm. The
result with the stringers, was "Mortm
and Democracy' was "busted;" the word
"Democracy" tore in two, and the whole
concern whipped by the wind into a shape
less mass of shreds. There is a "division''
in "Democracy" that cannot fail to be
"recognized," notwithstanding the Terri
torial and County platforms refuse to do so
The Daily stringer "stood the storm"
without material damage." The only
change was, a few threads binding the
word "Daily" to the ropes, broke loose
and the wind forced the name more close
ly in connection with the word "Congre.cs"
"Knowing ones" consider tbi3 little affair
between Daily Morton and the wind some
what ominous of the final result between
those two gentlemen.
